Record Rainfall in Northern Michigan

The local rivers filled up the boat wells and pressed to the top of the seawalls.  I have never seen the river this high.
Both the Sturgeon River and Little Sturgeon River overflowed it's banks in some unprotected areas.

The 3 day storm dumped over 4" of rain on Indian River.

The Weather Man Got It Right...Unfortunately

Captain's Log. Star Date April 20, 2011...

This must be some SciFi episode because it snowed 5" last night.

The accumulation would have been greater but it rained as well.

Even the summer toys are snow covered.

More soon...

Is it really April 19th?

Forecast today is snow.  Yes snow.  Accumulation of 6"-10".

More tomorrow.  Oh my.........

There is an App for that.

I have been in New York for Spring Break with my family so I haven't posted in a while. While traveling, I tested a variety of real estate apps for my iPhone and my wife's Droid. I freely admit I am 100% converted to the iPhone from my years as a Blackberry guy. The iPhone really is amazing. I used the Zillow and Coldwell Banker apps for looking at home prices during our east coast adventure. It was amazing to press the locate button then suddenly have all available listings pop up on the map. It works great in northern Michigan as well. One touch and you have detailed information about the property with full color photos. Then you call me and tell me which homes we are going to look at!
